New Google Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro XL renders leak

July 22, 2024

Ahead of Google’s upcoming hardware launch event on August 13, we’ve seen plenty of leaks about upcoming devices, and today two new renders have leaked showing the vanilla Pixel 9 and the Pixel 9 Pro XL (the true size successor to the Pixel 8 Pro).

Google’s lineup is about to get even more confusing on August 13, as it’s expected to launch four new phones: the Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro XL, and Pixel 9 Pro Fold. The Pixel 9 Pro isn’t the successor to the Pixel 8 Pro, at least not in size, as it’s the same size as the Pixel 8 and Pixel 9, but with the guts of the Pixel 9 Pro XL. The Pixel 9 Pro Fold is the successor to last year’s original Pixel Fold, so while this new naming scheme may take a little getting used to, it makes sense once you’re fully familiar with it.

The recently leaked pricing is just as confusing at first glance, and the gist is this: some versions will be priced the same as their predecessors, but there will also be price increases for a number of variants.

The new renders don’t really show us anything new, the Pixel 9 will have one less camera than the Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro XL, as we already knew, and the new devices feature a redesigned camera island on the back.

The cameras themselves were detailed by a rumor last week. All of these phones are expected to be powered by Google’s next-gen Tensor G4 chipset.
